Mutational analysis of the human A2B AR with respect to ligand binding
Mutationa | Helix/Positionb | Effect on Ligand Binding and Signal Transduction | Reference |
---|---|---|---|
V11I | 1.36 | No changes in (radio)ligand binding | Beukers et al., 2000 |
A12T | 1.37 | No changes in (radio)ligand binding | Beukers et al., 2000 |
L58V | 2.55 | No changes in (radio)ligand binding | Beukers et al., 2000 |
F59L | 2.56 | No specific radioligand binding and no cAMP production | Beukers et al., 2000 |
N273Y | 7.36 | Up to 60-fold increase in affinity of 2-substituted adenosines | Beukers et al., 2000 |
Amino acids are represented in single-letter code with position number shown. The first amino acid is that of the wild-type receptor, and the second is the one used for substitution, based on the corresponding amino acid in the human A2A receptor.
Position on helix, using notation of van Rhee and Jacobson (1996).
